Frozen Lingonberry and Blackcurrants Prices Surge, Stirring Waves in the Frozen Fruits and Vegetables Market
In recent years, frozen lingonberry and blackcurrants have gained significant popularity in the food processing industry due to their rich nutritional value and unique flavors. However, recent news of a significant price surge in frozen lingonberry and blackcurrants has drawn widespread attention within and beyond the industry.
Reasons Behind the Price Increase
Several factors have contributed to the sharp increase in the prices of frozen lingonberry and blackcurrants:
--Declining European Production: As one of the primary growing regions for lingonberry and blackcurrants, Europe has seen a decline in production, leading to a supply shortage.
--Increased European Market Demand: With Europe’s reduced production of lingonberry and blackcurrants, there is now a substantial demand for imports from China.
--Strong Demand in China: With increasing health consciousness, consumer demand for frozen fruits and vegetables continues to rise in China. Frozen lingonberry are commonly used in the preparation of desserts such as red bean paste, while frozen blackcurrants, due to their high antioxidant content, are widely used in juices, jams, and baked goods. As a result, a large portion of lingonberry and blackcurrants are consumed by Chinese customers.
--Shortened Harvest Time: This year, the harvest time for lingonberry and blackcurrants was shorter compared to previous years, which has had an impact on overall production.
Impact on the Industry
The price increase has posed significant challenges to the frozen fruits and vegetables industry:
Reduced Profit Margins for Businesses: Companies are facing rising raw material costs, which has compressed their profit margins.
Product Price Hikes: Rising product prices may lead to higher production costs for downstream food processing companies, pushing up final product prices and affecting consumer purchasing power.
